It's two a.m., but I'm still wide awake
Can't get to sleep and now my head aches
The tap tap tapping on my nervous system
Messes about with my circadian rhythm
Now three a.m., and I'm still not asleep
Listened to music and I've tried counting sheep
Hormone of darkness won't you please visit me
And kindly rid me of this anxiety
But then
Suddenly, I hear the sound of nocturnal footsteps
Approaching me, above my bed a tall winged silhouette
Morpheus; ruler of my dreams, hypnotic seducer
Morpheus; phantom spirit, night time's psychic transducer
He covers me with his gossamer wings
It's time my hallucination begins
He carries me to a cave underground
Somewhere I can feel safe and sound
He signals to me as I take a deep breath
And jump into the river of unconsciousness
A field of poppies with petals bright red
Is where I lie down and rest my tired head
Rest my tired head
In an opium bed
It's four a.m., as I drift off to sleep
My pulse slows down to a regular beat
Manipulation of my psychology
Has an effect on my, biology
And then
Suddenly, I hear the sound of nocturnal footsteps
Approaching me, above my bed a tall winged silhouette
Morpheus; ruler of my dreams, hypnotic seducer
Morpheus; phantom spirit, night time's psychic transducer
Lucidity
Takes control over me
